3 Room 'r' Balance Flat In Tampines

[varumin 0]

managed to get a 3 room 'R' in tampines with the fiancee from hdb's Sale of Balance Flat Exercise this year!

collecting the keys this thursday and so looking forward to our new home!

have very low 20k budget so doubtful if can get this to look like our dream home!

so thinking of maybe keeping the bedroom wall and using mixed paint cement screed for flooring and just textured painting for bathroom walls.

will be using ceiling fan.

lighting thinking of using track lights but scared not bright enough(led) or will be too hot if bright enough(halogen)

don't like the idea of hidden lizard poo and cockroach eggs so would not be using cove or drop lights.

floor plan as below.

some pics of the current layout as provided by hdb during the sales exercise.

A bit of revision to the plan. Decided not to hack the wall for the guest bedroom.

Going to use it as a space for storage/ chilling out next to window to drink tea and temp internet cafe/ storage area...
